Quote

You don't dive for specific solutions you dive to enliven that ocean of consciousness. Then your intuition grows and you have a way of solving those problems-knowing when it's not quite right and knowing a way to make it feel correct for you. That capacity grows and things go much more smoothly.

In the world there's a thing called collective consciousness. All of us billions of human beings together create that collective consciousness. With all the problems in our world, you can see that the collective consciousness is not so high.

Unfortunately, my ideas are not what you'd call commercial, and money really drives the boat these days. So I don't know what my future is. I don't have a clue what I'm going to be able to do in the world of cinema.

I would rather not make a film than make one where I don't have final cut.

Sleep is really important. You need to rest the physiology to be able to work weel and meditate well. When I don't get enough sleep, my meditations are duller. You may even dip into sleep at the beginning of your meditation, because you're settling down. But if you're well rested, you'll have a clearer deeper experience.

We only dream of images we already have inside of us.

I think true love is not only true personal love but totality of love, universal love - to be in love with everything manifest and everything unmanifest.

You could say that spirituality is bliss, and bliss is physical happiness, emotional happiness, mental happiness, and spiritual happiness. And it's intense. It's an intense happiness. It brings you together with everything.

I have to make what I see, whether it's a painting, a table, or a movie, or it's like a death and what would be the point of that?
David Lynch
Image
Because you make a world that didn't exist before, and you can go into that world deeper and deeper. It's unbounded out there. One film takes you into one area, another film takes you into another area. There could be trillions, zillions of worlds that exist in the big space.

I like things to be orderly.

Be true to yourself. Don't take no for an answer. And start your Transcendental Meditation.

The great coming to age of cable is really a beautiful thing. No commercials. It's like a small theater. It's a cinema on a TV screen.

In my case what happened is that within about two weeks of beginning meditation, the anger already started to go away. My wife came to me and said, What's going on? and I said, What are you talking about? To which she replied, This anger, where did it go? I didn't even realize that my anger had been going away.

So much of what happened to me is good fortune. But I would say: Try to get a job that gives you some time get your sleep and a little bit of food and work as much as you can. There's so much enjoyment in doing what you love. Maybe this will open doors, and you'll find a way to do what you love.

Life is filled with abstractions, and the only way to make heads or tails of it is going through intuition.

Freedom. It's like no constraints, an opening, and then barriers going away and lifting and breaking and experimentation and...it's like attempting for something.

I have a profound admiration for Fellini. I met him lately and he's just fantastic. I feel very close to him even though he's very Italian. But his films could have been made in every country. When I say, I feel close to him, then also because we're both born on January 20th.

If we didn't want to upset anyone, we would make films about sewing, but even that could be dangerous. But I think finally, in a film, it is how the balance is and the feelings are. But I think there has to be those contrasts and strong things within a film for the total experience.

Let's get rid of the suffering and bring real peace, which is not just the absence of war, but the absence of all negativity.

Sex is a doorway to something so powerful and mystical, but movies usually depict it in a completely flat way.
